Mondays are for Fighting: A Gospel Reader


Repent, Believe and FIGHT!
What do I read and study to learn how to fight? Found a great starter list.

My friend Matt Adair from Christ Community in Watkinsville posted a great set of links to articles and sermons that shape who we are and what we do. Some of the authors are profs I had in grad school, pastors I respect, scholars I study and folks I hadn't heard of until I read their stuff here.

These 24 resources provide a good foundation for personal reading, small group discussion or understanding Crosspoint's mission and my personal vision. Issues we all face. Click here to find the live links.

EXCELLENT list, PJ.

Keller is a great writer and apologist, Challies is another great defender of the faith (I follow him on Twitter - and you could too if you finally relent and get a Twitter account), and Carson...well, he's one of the best.

These and other resources do much to restore weary travelers. Thanks for the jolt!
